US private equity firm Warburg Pincus and Bharti Enterprises will together purchase a 49 per cent stake in appliance-maker Haier India, the companies have said. The deal will give them a foothold in the country’s fast-growing electronics appliances market, led by Samsung and LG.
The stake will be bought from China’s Haier Group, which currently owns the unit. Haier will retain a 49 per cent holding after the deal, while employees will own the remaining 2 per cent.
While relations between India and China have cautiously improved in recent months, Chinese investments in Indian companies remain subject to regulatory scrutiny and approval.
The companies have not disclosed the deal value or valuation. However, industry circles estimate Haier India’s likely worth at around Rs 15,000 crore.
Haier India manufactures air conditioners, refrigerators, televisions, washing machines and kitchen appliances across its two facilities in Pune and Greater Noida.
